safety instructions _3
Prior to removal of original dishwasher and the installation of your new unit, make sure to
switch o your circuit breaker. Do not connect the dishwasher until you have completed the
installation. Connecting the power cable is the last step when installing the dishwasher.
All wiring and grounding must be done in accordance with the electrical code applicable to
the region.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
For a permanently connected appliance:
This appliance must be connected to grounded metal, a permanent wiring system, or an
equipment-grounding conductor must be run with the circuit conductors and connected to
the equipment-grounding terminal or lead on the appliance.
The dishwasher is very heavy. Do not attempt to move or carry a dishwasher alone. Two or
more people are needed to move a dishwasher and avoid potential injuries.
If the power cable is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, a service agent or
similarly qualifi ed person in order to avoid a hazard.
Do not touch the power cable with wet hands.
Do not connect another appliance to the same power outlet as the dishwasher.
Make sure to use a new water supply line. Old lines are susceptible to breakage because
they become hardened and may cause property damage due to a water leakage.
The dishwasher must be connected to a hot water supply with a temperature between
120˚F (49 ˚C) ~ 149 °F (65 ˚C). This temperature range provides the best washing result and
shortest cycle time. Temperature should not exceed 149 ˚F (65 ˚C) to prevent damage to
dishes.
Ensure that the water supplied to the dishwasher does not freeze. Frozen water can
damage the hoses, valves, pump, or other components.
Certifi ed residential dishwashers are not intended for licensed food establishments.
